Let's focus our lens on caregiving -- technology and beyondSubmitted by Laurie Orlov on Sun, 09/07/2014 - 10:09Tech we talk about -- health -- the much-hyped investment opportunity. We talk ad nauseum about health innovation, often in the context of an aging society -- from StartupHealth, Rock Health, Health 2.0, and AARP's own Health@50+.

Aging in place and market size exaggerationSubmitted by Laurie Orlov on Mon, 08/11/2014 - 15:11Look closer at that Semico aging in place projection of $30 billion by 2017.

Taking a closer read, the cited report asserts that “almost 70 percent of the over 120 million unit shipments will come from wellness peripherals like glucose meters, blood pressure monitors and smart scales.” Really? Hang in with me a second. That's 84 million of these 'wellness peripherals' that the population which is aging in place will be buying within 3 years, generating that $30 billion. >>> Read more . . .
